Jesus Loves You More Than You Will Know (Wo wo wo)

And the decline of not so young, simply immature, or butt-pinched crazy, Prince Charlie's scaley, cold-blooded lizard empire at lgf continues with the banning of Jay Tea from Wizbang.

I long ago stopped checking on Little Green Footballs regularly a while ago, when I started realizing subconsciously that it simply doesn't say very much I'm interested in reading. This was a gradual process; it used to be one of the sites I checked several times a day. But I find myself poking in there more and more often lately, with the same sort of morbid fascination one reserves for car wrecks and horrific crime scenes.

I don't believe I've ever registered, or commented there; so, I guess I will never be able to wear little Prince Charlie's Boyscout equivalent of a badge of courage. But it is amazing to watch play out across the blogs in that car wreck sort of a way Jay Tea describes. Where have you gone Charlie DiMaggio, the blogosphere turns its eyes to lonely you. Seeking truth? Nah. (Coo coo coo). What's that you say little lizard king, your frickin' mind has up and gone away, (Hey hey hey, hey hey hey).*

I speak from experience. I recently revived my long-unused login at LGF to denounce Killgore Trout's hit-and-run attack on Hot Air, where he left about a dozen racist comments in the middle of the night, then denounced Hot Air for not immediately deleting them and banning him.

Trout, it should be noted, is a trusted moderator at LGF and still a loyal, valued minion there. He's thanked in the Hot Air comments article cited above.

Anyway, I obeyed all the published rules for comments -- but as soon as Charles woke up, my comments were all deleted and I was banned. My offense was against the unpublished rule -- Thou Shalt Not Disagree With Charles And His Inner Cabal.

No great loss.

All your internet privileges are suspended. Now get off my internet you racists and crypto nazis. I took down Dan Rather and now I have become him.

You can some see our empire, but if you question our authority you will be banned and sent into exile.

One silver lining of the LunGFish's meltdown is the creativity it has inspired: http://racedetective.blogspot.com/2009/10/chuck-johnson-race-detective-vol-i.html

He almost seems to revel in people hating him.

Perhaps the best thing for all is to simply stop paying any attention to him and his hypocritical, (posting fake Limbaugh quotes after making his name pointing out fake Rather memos) mean-spirited (ban people for simply and even politely expressing opinions that might differ from his own) and unethical (deleting the false Limbaugh quotes he posted without any explanation or apology) site.

"the banning of Jay Tea from Wizbang": Not reading carefully, I first thought somehow Johnson had gained control of Wizbang.

For awhile I thought it was just me, thnking Chuck has lost his flipping mind. If you don't praise the number one lizard boy you are banned,

"I don't believe I've ever registered, or commented there; so, I guess I will never be able to wear little Prince Charlie's Boyscout equivalent of a badge of courage."

Neither have I, Dan, so don't feel bad.

In fact, it brings to mind a Chuckles thread at the Rottweiler from a couple weeks back.

Azygos was commenting, and he said something to the effect of "I stopped reading him about six years ago. What took the rest of you so long?"

To which I one-upped him & replied, "I've never read him. Neener, neener." :-)

Unfortunately Redstate.com is racing down that path too. I've been banned there for making an anti-McCain comment (mentioning I was glad to vote for Palin and paid no attention to that other name on the ticket). Redstate is terribly disingenuous about banning, giving people a fake "Database redigestation error" to the dismay of web system administrators worldwide instead of confidently declaring their bias against speech that disagrees with their site administrators views.

It was quite a shock when I realized that I'd been banned by a conservative site. As one who never uses profanity in my posts, is a leading professional in my field with several decades of experience and an advanced education in finance, economics and philosophy, participates in county-level Republican party activities, my critique and skepticism of McCain apparently was too much for what must be a centrist Republican Club site. No loss for me, but a site and party that refuses to allow "truth and falsehood to grapple" will die.

Duh!

You guys are all sick.
